Technical Performance
The Team Associated M2 x 0.4 x 4mm BHCS represents precision fastening engineering at its finest. The M2 designation indicates a 2-millimetre diameter metric screw, whilst the 0.4 specification refers to the pitch, defining the distance between each thread. The 4mm length measurement indicates these are relatively short fasteners suitable for precise internal assemblies and lightweight components common in RC vehicles. BHCS stands for Button Head Cap Screw, a fastening standard that provides superior load-bearing capacity compared to conventional slotted or Phillips head screws. This head design is particularly valuable in RC applications where vibration and repeated assembly/disassembly cycles are common. The button head also sits flush or slightly proud of the surface, making these screws ideal for areas where conventional fastener heads might protrude and interfere with moving parts. Team Associated has engineered these fasteners to work seamlessly across their entire model range, from recreational bashers to serious competition vehicles. The metal composition and manufacturing tolerances ensure consistent performance across the entire pack, so every screw behaves identically. For RC car enthusiasts in the UK building, racing, or maintaining their models, using correct OEM specification fasteners like these M2 x 0.4 x 4mm BHCS screws is essential for reliability and longevity.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Which Team Associated models use M2 x 0.4 x 4mm BHCS screws? — These fasteners are used across numerous Team Associated platforms including the TC5, TC6, TC6.1, TC6.2, TC7, SC10, SC10.2, SC10.3, B44.2, B44.3, B4.2, B5, B5M, B6, B6.1, B6.2, B6.3, B6.4, B74, B74.1, B84, RC10, RC10 Classic, RC10SC6.1, RC10SC6.2, RC10T84, RC12R5.2, RC12R6, T4.2, T5M, T6.1, T6.2, T6.4, T7, and various specialist models including the DR10, DR10M, DC10, RB10, SR10, and Pro2 series. If you're unsure whether these screws fit your specific model, check your manual or contact RC Model Shop for clarification.
- Why should I use genuine Team Associated fasteners instead of generic metric screws? — Genuine OEM Team Associated fasteners are manufactured to precise tolerances and specifications that ensure perfect fit and consistent performance with your model. Generic metric screws may vary slightly in dimensions, material composition, or head design, potentially causing fit issues, thread stripping, or poor performance. Using correct specifications maintains the integrity of your RC vehicle and prevents damage to component assemblies.
- How often should I replace these screws on my RC car? — This depends on your usage frequency and maintenance practices. Screws should be inspected regularly for signs of wear, stripping, or corrosion. In regular RC use, fasteners may need replacement every few months if you're actively racing or bashing. Many RC enthusiasts perform a complete fastener inspection before major events or competitions, replacing any that show wear.
- Are these screws suitable for outdoor use? — Whilst these BHCS fasteners are designed for RC use and built to withstand typical RC vehicle operation, they are not specifically coated for extended outdoor storage. Store your spare screws in a dry location to prevent oxidation, and always inspect fasteners before use to ensure they haven't accumulated dirt or moisture.
- Can I use these screws to repair damage from crashes? — Yes, these M2 x 0.4 x 4mm BHCS screws are perfect for post-crash repairs. If your RC car has been involved in a crash and fasteners have been damaged, stripped, or lost, simply replace them with fresh screws from this pack to restore your model to full working order.
- What is the difference between BHCS and other screw types? — BHCS (Button Head Cap Screw) fasteners differ from standard Phillips head or slotted screws in several important ways. The button head design provides a larger bearing surface, distributing load more evenly and reducing the risk of the fastener pulling through soft materials. The hex socket design also provides superior grip compared to Phillips or slot-drive fasteners, reducing the risk of stripping the screw head during assembly or disassembly. For precision RC applications, BHCS fasteners are the superior choice.
